Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The drum's discard diameter is 11.400 inches, which means that it has already reached the minimum acceptable size and cannot be used anymore. Therefore, Technician A is correct in suggesting to replace the drum. Technician B's suggestion to turn the drum by 0.005 inch and reuse it is not valid because it would still be below the discard diameter limit.
